Cloud computing is a recent development in the world of Information Technology offering IT capabilities as services. It involves parallel computing, distributed computing, grid computing, and virtualization technologies. In this research paper, the concepts of cloud architecture and platforms. The various applications of cloud computing and their unique characteristics are differentiated on how they work on different platforms. Like any other technology with shortcomings, the challenges of using cloud interoperability and cloud computing adoption perspectives are also highlighted. Issues of security, compliance, reliability, legal issues and privacy that present a primary barrier to users are also discussed.
